I thought he had done all he could. This goes way further, brings in new talent, and is a rollicking, good story.

I really enjoyed this and I wish there were more. I like the nature of the stories that I've always liked Gordon Dixon. I miss him.

Historia
Welcome to Ringworld, an intermediate step between Dyson Spheres and planets. The gravitational force created by a rotation on its axis of 770 miles per second means no need for a roof. Walls 1,000 miles high at each rim will let in the sun and prevent much air from escaping. Larry Niven's novel, Ringworld, is the winner of the 1970 Hugo Award for Best Novel, the 1970 Nebula Award for Best Novel, and the 1972 Ditmars, an Australian award for Best International Science Fiction.

A Big Story in a Grand Settimg
Revisado: 12-10-23
I'm fascinated with Larry Niven's Lnown Space series. Are an easy listen and an easy read as I did back when they were released as stories in science fiction pulps.
Larry has a gift for making a compelling tail about recently discovered or considered topics. Dyson Spheres, ring-shaped worlds, tiny black holes. He takes the concepts and crafts a witty story around them.
Ringworld is no different. However in the case of Ringworld, he has created it rich and fertile ground for a myriad of stories he made a whole New World that's far bigger than any world we know.
And I thank him.

Wonderful narrator for an interesting book.
Revisado: 12-02-23
The book is interesting, speculative fiction about a program that may or may not have happened and the author makes it sound plausible. I like the author story and his attention to detail. His story and his ideas imply a serious depth of understanding of subject being portrayed.
I adore the narrator. The range of his voice can go from the dulcet tones of a lover to the harsh barks of a military commander in the blink of a paragraph. His representation of a myriad of dialects is perfect for this series. I always enjoy the books he narrates.

Why get paid for one word when you can use two?
Revisado: 11-28-23
I was really looking forward to reading this book, and I was eager, because there were a lot more pages in the second book then there were the first. And I don't have as many hours in the day to read, as I once did, so when the audiobook came out, I jumped at it.
Perhaps the choice of narrators had something to do with it. The annunciation was clear, and the pace was slow enough that anybody could listen to it, but it was being read by someone I thought would be more appropriate to a Shakespearean play. It was truly hard to listen to.
I quit one hour in and I'm not seeing how to get a refund.

Revisado: 11-06-23
I bought this book originally as part of the Kickstarter and enjoyed it immensely. The progenitor of Traveller weaves a tale of political, intrigue and necessity.
In fact, when I found out that the book was published in the mainstream, I bought the audiobook again, so I could listen to it in the Audible reader.

Delightful and an easy read or listen
Revisado: 10-31-23
Excellent story, well constructed and coherent, but revealing the bits and interactions in small, succulent bits as would a riveting detective novel.
The narrator does a masterful job of explaining and conveying the daily story details as though recording in a scientific notebook. The voices captured the essence of the story characters and I easily lost track of the single narrator. Just as it should be.
I heartily recommend.

Chris husker is a great offer. He extensively researches his subject matter and what you read or listen to sounds like the person he's writing about. I don't know how it works. You have to read this author.

Not fond of mysterious or faulty technology happening and focusing too much on a backstabbing storyline. Didn't get halfway before removing it from my library.
